I hope the rest of the shape is more original than this little bit I see here. I'm disappointed that they are going the route as everyone else with some gaping, fish mouth opening in the nose. Please tell me this trend will end soon.
That is sound advice about collector cars and I've heard it a hundred times over the past 20 years. It doesn't change because you still have to know what you are doing. Other investments are the same way but it's a lot harder to slap on a paint job and forge a few documents to make a corporation look like a rare and…
You're kidding, right? Real world conditions has every Typhoon in the air getting shot down by SAMs within minutes. Once air defenses are down then they can carry a similar load to an F-35 but before that they are worthless or at the least very much at risk.
Thus we see the circle of life continue on and on and on until we have a caution flag to bunch up the field.
I agree, I know we talked about in my program. I also agree that all aspects of the design and implementation were completely messed up. My two biggest critiques of many engineers is their lack of understanding of the production process and considering the costs. This is mostly in the aerospace sector but I'm sure…
Yea, that one was seriously bad news. The crazy thing for me is that I ate lunch in that lobby some 18 years after that and didn't realize it until a few months later. They had removed the remaining walkway.
I see this kind of stuff all the time in my line of work. There are a lot of people out there that have no idea about engineering yet they think it's easy. They figure if it's their idea then it's a good one and it'll work just as good as anyone's. Listen up, you go to engineering school for a reason. It's because…
Amen, I couldn't agree more. Send this to all the car companies and their silly focus groups and their design committees and their marketing departments and...
Why didn't Chris Bangle follow Earl's example? The world would have been better for it.
Yes, that still doesn't change the fact that they need to do it.
These guys just need to invest in a programmable flashing light like everyone else has. Oh, and I guess you beat out Orlove for writing this one, eh?
I'm trying to attach a photo of it.
75 Chevy Malibu. I'm currently restoring the paint and interior.
That is simply awesome. Well done.
I must say, that is pretty impressive. Our old family station wagon has about 400,000 or 450,000 miles on it but it's a '75 and has just seen daily driver and family duty over the last 37 years.
Considering that you can probably talk him down another $200 it's a nice price. I have a lot of time in a XR4Ti cruising on road trips with my friend. We went all over the western US in college and afterwards. He still owns the car. The little turbo engines aren't too bad. Cranking up the boost would be even better…
I find the video interesting because you can watch Seb's feet and see how he does things. He's a lot faster on the brakes then I would have imagined. I expected the application to be a little smoother. Also, the driving position appears to be very close to reality and that is pretty cool.
It's a way to accomplish faster shifts with no power interruption to the wheels. This is what the zero shift type racing transmissions do (the continuous power part) and it's all in the name of .05 seconds reduction per lap. The difference is that a race car doesn't mess with the two clutches. That is an invention for…
